Recovery

We organize all the logistics by providing empty containers for bulk cable waste or trucks for drums, and transportation to the recycling facility.

3

Compensation

Once the process to separate and recover the non-ferrous metals from the cable waste is over, your cable scrap value is credited to your bank account

Did you know ?

When the waste is transferred from the original producer […] to one of the natural or legal persons […] for preliminary treatment, the responsibility for carrying out a complete recovery or disposal operation shall not be discharged as a general rule.” (EU directive on waste: DIRECTIVE 2008/98/EC of 19/11/2008).

What does it mean? To give an example, you are a waste producer when you install cable in a building and there are leftovers. Then, even if you sell your cable leftovers to a waste treatment company or scrap dealer, your responsibility is still engaged until you can prove the recycling or disposal of your waste.
